The Camelback Run

The Camelback Run, a long-standing race in Fremont, Ohio, is held at St. Joseph Bishop Hoffman High School on Croghan Street. This marks its 47th year, featuring a 10K, a 5K, and two children's races: a 2K and a quarter-mile Camel Calves run. The adult races begin at 8:00 AM, followed by the youth races at 9:30 AM, accommodating both serious road racers and families with young children. The race is supported by the Fremont Elite Runners Club, with awards extending beyond the top finishers. The 10K and 5K award prizes to overall male and female winners, Masters and Grand Masters runners, and the top three in age groups ranging from 14 and under to 75 and over. The 2K recognizes top male and female finishers, and all other children receive finisher awards. Runners who pre-register receive shirts; youth runners get youth-sized soft tees. Awards are presented around 10:00 AM, preceding post-race activities in downtown Fremont.
